Setting up Energy Star

Map Portfolio Manager facilities and meters with Infor EAM facilities and meters to collect and transmit the correct energy consumption data to Portfolio Manager thru the Automated Benchmarking System (ABS). ABS will send all facility and/or meter data previously defined in PM to Infor EAM.

Next, select the Infor EAM Equipment ID or Infor EAM Meter ID for each facility or meter within that facility. Once the system matches some or all of the facilities/meters to their PM counterparts, click Confirm Pending Authorizations to initiate the web service message thru ABS to PM.
